The stage is their biggest, in terms of construction; they usually have a mid-platform in the middle of the arena, but this time they had an expansive stage. And the screens are quite a substantial size. I wouldn't call this low budget at all. Their first two tours? Yes, those were low budget. But this one? No.

I don't think it's low budget - the stage is great and makes it so so many fans get super close to them. They also fly and the dancers are excellent. It's also just a UK + Ireland tour so I wouldn't expect a huge amount of props.

Idk I've been a fan(for the us) since like 2007 and their concerts always looked more hmm idk creative than this. Even if they were not expensive. 
 

 

also.. I read reviews and they were RAVING the tour.

Saw them on Monday and 

 

The ballads were definitely the low points (boring) but everything else was just insane. Sound of the Underground literally ended lives.

Oh, if you're keeping yourself spoiler free etc

 

Spoiler

She has a lot of tributes on the show, the most prominent being Whole Lotta History, I'll Stand By You and The Promise. She's a lot on the backdrop screens for Untouchable and Wake Me Up too.

The promise one is so beautiful

Just got back from the Manchester show, and I must say it was a 10/10 experience. Girls Aloud are the greatest British girl group ever, no contest about that. All four girls killed it, Nadine is so effortlessly flamboyant, Cheryl has that superstar aura, Nicola was the best vocalist and incredibly focused and graceful, and Kimba was so funny (sometimes unintentionally, she tried to return Nicola's water flask to one of the staff members but they took so long to get to her that she had her arm outstretched for a good few minutes looking goofy). 

 

The setlist was immaculate, almost every song worked and had a reason to be on the setlist (except Long Hot Summer, which should've been replaced by The Loving Kind but maybe I'm biased towards the latter). The choreo was simple but very effective, and the girls served charisma and energy throughout the show. A lot of people didn't like the costumes, but I think they looked incredible; they looked like angel Barbies in their opening number and the red & black dresses were so cunty and sexy. Speaking of sexy, the new version of Sexy! No No No... was just otherworldly, my soul went to heaven and came back through that performance; easily my favourite rendition I need it on streaming NOW. Jump's outro with them shouting out the dancer's name made me love it even more, The Promise was a fantastically high note to go out on, and Something Kinda Oooh and On The Metro were such energetic performances. The crowd was surprisingly very active (except during the album cuts + LHS and Sexy!), it made the event all the more enjoyable for me.

 

My favourite part of the night was just seeing the girls be back together, and this time genuinely as friends with no tension visible, unlike their previous two tours. The tributes to Sarah were incredibly moving (Cheryl asked the crowd to put their hands together for Sarah's oncologist, who was in the crowd), and while part of me was moved to tears by her absence, another part of me felt like she would be looking down at the girls with pride. Girls Aloud are one of the rare acts who make every song sound like pop perfection, and this tour was a reminder of that. Please grab tickets if you can, you won't regret it. Girls Aloud's promise won't fade.

It's sad "The Loving Kind" was not included but, that is Sarah's song (per Pet Shop Boys), as well. So I don't think it would have done well without her.

[Superbitch]

I'm so sad about the loving kind one of my faves by them too. But yeah it's a lot of Sarah in that one maybe it'd be too emotional 

[Mellark]

Seeing videos of the Sarah tribute on TikTok of this tour and it is heartwarming.  This is wishful thinking but I wish they were popular in the States so they can come here.

I'll Stand By You intro was performed through a solo recording of Sarah, so I reckon they could've done something similar for The Loving King too. Nicola and Cheryl could've performed the verses Cheryl originally shared with Sarah, and they could've had Sarah's voice played for her solo parts. It would've been a beautiful tribute.

[The Slayer]

LAST NIGHT WAS INCREDIBLE!!

 

Front row last night!! They were insane and it was such a blast!

 

ME AND CHERYL SANG TO EACHOTHER AND I GOT IT RECORDED 

 

I cannot wait to see them two more times next month!

 

Also, as an FYI if you're in the first few rows of seats they give you wrist bands so you can stand at the barrier!
